    Simple but a good visual treat

    Movie is not based on complicated story line or time loop concepts like some recent films.

    This is a simple Story of a common man who faces a lot of acid test when he tries to make it big. Songs are excellent I should say. Unni has improved a lot but still needs to perfect his dialogue delivery and sentimental scenes. Aju vargese and Saiju kurupp was really good throughout the show.

    Some people are trying to paint communal colours for their political gains. Don't fall into it. This film doesn't potray anything as such. Do watch it with your family.

    Common man's story

    Very Good script and direction by Vishnu.

    A complete family movie. A keralite common man's story. Unnimukundan acted well. This movie will help Unni to turn natural acting.

    Top Class Movie

    Excellent story telling in an old fashioned way... Feels a present situation of a common man... Unni Mukundan rocks with his acting... Film also superbly depicts real day to day working of various institution like courts, govt offices etc .... This is a gem not to be missed.... Director Vishnu Mohan deserves full credit...

    Simple movie

    A very simple movie but includes a crucial subject . First half depicts the conflict though at some points there could be a lag . But the second half is more fast paced and interesting. Climax was just great and totally unexpected. A one time watch family movie .

    One of the best movie of recent time

    This is one of the best thriller Malayalam movie of recent time. Unni has improved a lot as an actor. The director was successful in communicating what he wanted and engaged the viewers till end.
